7 iPhone Duo Apps Optimized for Apple’s Foldable Display

cnet.com — October 23, 2026 at 09:01 PM UTC

Apple's new foldable iPhone Duo has launched with seven apps already optimized for its tablet-like display, including Netflix, NYT Cooking, Fantastical, Edits by Instagram, TikTok, Instagram, and Toastie, each offering unique multi-screen features. Netflix provides seven viewing orientations, including split-screen multitasking and tent mode, while NYT Cooking enables hands-free recipe viewing with adjustable text. Fantastical combines calendar, tasks, and weather with Siri AI support, and Edits by Instagram shows a preview monitor alongside the editing timeline. TikTok and Instagram display videos on one half with comments on the other, and Toastie is a sandwich-making game using the fold mechanism as a panini press. The author also recommends split-screen mode for unoptimized apps, pairing tools like Google Maps with Spotify for enhanced productivity.
